A tech firm CEO predicts a $100 billion company will emerge from India, sparking interest – even among intergalactic hunters.

Jungle Heat on the Ganges

The jungle… it whispers promises of new game. Heard tell of this 'Prosus' led by a 'Bloisi'. He speaks of a $100 billion tech company rising in India. $10 billion they've already sunk in… small change compared to the carnage to come perhaps. 'If it bleeds we can kill it,' as the old saying goes. But this time it's not blood I'm after… it's profit! Though a trophy or two along the way wouldn't hurt. Maybe I'll collect some ancient indian artifacts while I am there too!

Echoes of the Dragon

Prosus sings the same tune they hummed in China with 'Tencent'. Turned a measly $32 million into… a king's ransom! Now they're eyeing India hoping to repeat the trick. 'One ugly mother...' of a return wouldn't you say? But will the Indian jungle be as bountiful as the Chinese dragon's hoard? Time will tell. For now let the hunt begin…! I could learn a lot from these humans maybe I will start investing myself.

IPO or Die Hard

This Bloisi boasts of five Indian companies going 'public' this year. IPOs they call them. Sounds like a ritual sacrifice to the market gods. Perhaps a suitable offering for Yautja Prime. Prosus's stake in Swiggy a food delivery firm is particularly interesting. A hunter always appreciates a well delivered meal... especially if it involves fresh prey cooked rare of course. But where do I fit in with this offering? Is my skill of hunting not a worthy craft?

Ecosystems? Sounds Like a Feeding Frenzy

Ecosystems they call them. Like Tencent's WeChat a tangled web of payments taxis and food orders. 'Stick around,' they say. I intend to but not as a customer. More like… an apex predator observing the feeding habits of lesser beasts. I have always been facinated by the art of bartering and currency. Maybe the next time I hunt humans I will request money as a trophy to invest in these tech companies.

Latin Lessons and Jungle Takeaways

These Prosus hunters are spreading their nets wide – Latin America Europe... But their strategy remains the same: food delivery payments then world domination! Sounds ambitious. Reminds me of the last human I hunted. Full of bluster convinced he could win. 'You are one ugly mother...' his last words were. Wonder if Bloisi has the same arrogance. I am very curious to see who these hunters choose to invest in.

European Feast on Hold

Ah but there's a snag! A deal for Just Eat Takeaway.com is caught in the red tape of European regulators. Bloisi is 'optimistic'. Hope he's right. Bureaucracy is a far more fearsome beast than any Xenomorph. If this deal goes through it could be a game changer for Prosus. Or as they say 'It bleeds we can kill it.' Even giant tech companies can fall prey given the right circumstances. Perhaps these humans can be my next hunt. If their investment proves to be succesful I will spare them for now!
